can u guys hear the song? I certainly can! It's "Burn For You" by Toby Mac. Regretfully, It will only play in the internet explorer browser I think. It won't play if you're using Mozilla Firefox.

THIS IS A TEST. I'M WORKING ON PIMPING OUT MY PHUSEBOX. BUT ITS QUITE HARD B/C I DON'T KNOW THAT MUCH ABOUT HTML. HMMM THE FONT COLOR WON'T CHANGE....WEIRD. OH WELL. I'M SURE I'LL FIGURE IT OUT SOONER OR LATER!

OAKLAND WHO???

Everyone longs to give himself or herself completely to someone, to have a deep and committed soul relationship with another, to be loved thoroughly & unconditionally. But God says: No, not until you are satisfied, fulfilled and content with being loved by Me alone, with giving yourself totally, unreservedly to Me alone. I love you, My child, and until you discover that only in Me is your satisfaction to be found, you will not be capable of the perfect human relationship that I have planned for you. You will never be united with another until you are united with Me; exclusively of anyone or anything else; exclusively of any other desires and belongings. I want you to stop planning, stop wishing, and allow Me to give you the most thrilling plan existing -- one that you can't imagine. I want you to have the very best. Please allow Me to bring it to you. Just keep your eyes on Me, expecting the greatest things. Keep experiencing that satisfaction knowing that I AM. Keep learning and listening to the things I tell you. You must be patient. Don't be anxious. Don't worry. Don't look around at the things others have. Don't look at the things you think you want. Just keep looking up to Me, or you will miss what I want to give you. And then, when you are ready, I will surprise you with a love far more wonderful than you could ever dream. You see, until you are ready, and until the one I have for you is ready (I am working even this minute to have both of you ready at the same time), until you are both satisfied exclusively with Me and the life I have prepared for you, you won't be able to experience the love that exemplifies your relationship with Me…and this is perfect love.

***Got that from Michael Dillon's xanga. I thought he proposed a very good and true point! People need to stop falling in love with each other and fall in love with Christ instead!***

sup guys. there is alot of info to update about...and not enough time. to put it short, God has been working in my life and in the lives of my friends MAJORLY in the past few days. I had the most intimate bible study ever, and tonight rocked at church. Everybody that goes to Siegel needs to come to one club tomorrow morning because my boy Clint Nadeau is speaking! Its gonna be tight...even though its gonna be EARLY! But praise God for it. Also this weekend hornbaker aka 817 is coming down to the boro. So its gonna be a good week. I wish u guys a great week as well. As Clint would say...fight the good fight of faith!

I am currently updating in my 4th period web page design class because i'm bored and the teacher is looking the other way. My weekend was pretty swell. We had the leadership retreat at the Toleedo's house (or however u spell it). God really taught me some cool stuff. Today i'm going to the hope center trailer park to play with the little kids and help them with homework. And after that, is bible study! See u guys later.

Thought for the Week: "You never really know how good of a christian you really are untill you are driving alone on the interstate and someone cuts you off suddenly" -Coach Harris

Today was a great day. Well...kind of. It was only mediocre untill after school. We started our first bible study today with me, ben, john, alex, Gibelyou, Clint, and Kash. Wow it was just...wow. Amazing and fun. I can tell God has just got some amazing things in store for us and I can't wait to see what it is. If anybody else is interested in joining our bible study group, you can talk to one of us. But we are limiting it to mostly juniors and seniors...maybe with a few exceptions...so talk to us first. But like I said, I think we all will grow as christian guys this year because we have not one but 2 great on-fire for Christ leaders to teach us the word. AS YOU CAN TELL I AM PUMPED!!!! lol. Oh and by the way, congrats to the Siegel soccer girls for a great game tonight. But anyways, its getting late...and school is tomorrow. So i'll talk to you guys later. I'm out.

Father God, we lift up this day to you. I pray that you would give the Gilley's and all of their family and friends strength as we recall what happened on this very day one year ago. But more so, I pray that you would continue to use the life and testomony of Bruce Gilley to reach out to others and better your kingdom. And Father, we know that Bruce touched more lives in his short 14 years on this Earth than most will ever touch in a lifetime. Knowing that he is sitting in heaven with his savior smiling down on us, we are thankful. Thank you father, for changing my life as a result of taking Bruce's. Thank you Father, Amen.

church was cool tonight. Good message. Very encouraging. I'm on leadership now. Yay for that. Tomorrow is john's birthday. Show him some love. Peace out.

Unchanging One by Todd Agnew

You know when I wake
When I rise
When I pray
When I Curse You
And You love me the same
And You know when I stumble and fall
And You’re there through it all
The only unchanging one

I love this song...

do u guys ever have deja vu, where u think that you've done something before, or been somewhere at the exact same place where the exact thing has happened already before? I had one of those today. I hate those b/c u don't know if u saw it in a dream or if it really did happen before or if its just all in your head....yeah I hate it. Or maybe i'm just a weird guy idk....that is all.

siegel is WAY overcrowded

hello to all

Hey guys, this seems to be the popular thing right now. So I figured what the heck, i'll give it a try. So these were my results.

GARRETT
G is for Godlike
A is for Arty
R is for Romantic
R is for Rare
E is for Elegant
T is for Trendy
T is for Talented

First of all i'm def. not Godlike or arty...but as for the other ones....

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to obedience and warmth.

In love, you feel the most alive when things are straight-forward, and you're told that you're loved.

You'd like to your lover to think you are optimistic and happy.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was insecure and in constant need of reassurance.

Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.

In this moment, you think of love as commitment. Love only works when both people are totally devoted.



What Are The Keys To Your Heart?

that makes me sound just a bit gay lol

I wanna go to disney world...where everything is just happy.

Well today was the first half day back at school. I really don't know quite what to think. I guess my classes seem ok. I didn't get classes with all of the people I wanted to but I did get a class with cole and 2 classes with schaller which is awesome! Sadly, I have 2nd lunch and like none of my other friends do. I don't think my Junior year will be as tough as some people have said it will be. I'm only worried about Algebra II and Spanish II. Everything else shouldn't be too bad. Well i'm going out to eat with clint and the guys at fazolis so holla.

-Garrett

Well I am kissing summer goodbye until next year. This has been the best summer yet that i've had. So many good times...I wish it wouldn't end. I will be excited about the first half day of school tomorrow. But once I get back and see everybody and what classes I have and with whome I have them with then it will get boring and i'll be ready for summer to start back again....its like that for me every year. I know Junior year will be tough even though i'm not exactly taking SUPER challenging classes like alot of my friends (I like to make it as easy as possible on myself...mostly b/c i'm just lazy). Here's what i'm taking if anybody cares.

English III Honors
Alegebra II Honors
U.S. History Standard
Spanish II
Principals of Tech
Webpage Design

So i'd say about 2 possibly 3 of those classes will be break classes for me. If U.S. History is easy, then that will be a huge relief. I am really excited to see some people, but like I said, the excitement will die after a few days. But the first and last days of school are always the best ones! After school tomorrow me clint and all my boys are goin out to eat at fazolis....so if anybody else wants to come gimme a holla it will be fun. Later yall -

Also I got new pics in my photo box that abi actually took not me but check them out anyways they are sweet.

i'm back from gulf shores. I had a blast, even though that place is pretty run down since the hurricane hit it last year. Me and ben went to this cool restaurant called lamburts, where they throw rolls at you and everything on the menu is all u can eat. good stuff. we also went deep sea fishing on an afternoon and morning trip. we met up with forrest in destin for the morning trip. that was alot of fun. yesturday i went to opry mills with all my friends...and let me tell u it was so good to back and see all of them and just hang out again. Anyways, school starts back on Thursday, and i'm so not ready. Even though i'm excited about the first half day, so i can see who all i get classes with and everything. Oh and by the way ben yeargan has a phusebox now. It's called what?im6ft5? So show the man some love and send him a friend request...b/c he needs more friends. For now, i'm out.

Last night I couldn't sleep due to too much dr. pepper at the restaurant raid. So I stayed up and watched criss angel mind freak on tv after having heard meredith talk about the show while we were eating. Let me tell you, i'm thankful that i'm just a normal guy. Now let me tell u about this guy if u haven't heard already. First of all, he's a magician, and a pretty good one too. He's up there with david blane and david copperfield as far as his tricks go. But his main act isn't in fact a magic trick at all...its more like an insane stunt. I watched in amazement as this idiot was run over by an H2 Hummer while laying on a bed of nails....and that was one of his less dangerous stunts. It really had me going when he stuck hooks through the skin on his back and was lifted a few hundred feet off the ground by a flying in-motion helicopter. This guy is a first class idiot. He may be a trained professional idiot...but still an idiot. But I gotta give it to him...he had me entertained...so I guess he does his job well. Even if his job is being a psychopath. But it just makes me all the more thankful that I have Jesus in my life and I can live for the high the his holy spirit gives me and not the the temporary rush that u get from doing something as insane as criss angel. Anyways, that's a wrap.

I'm a brand new man. I'm a conscious man. I'm a man who's burnin'for you
The mistakes I've made have been chased away to the bottom of the ocean blue.
I'm a brand new man in a foreign land.I'm a man who's feelin'that fire.
And it's all so clear when I'm standing here at the peak of my desire.
So wont you move me like you used to.I want the world to know I burn for you.

This song is TIIIIIGHT. It pretty much describes the way that we feel when Jesus fills us back up and re-charges us with his holy spirit. I love it.

Well I went to my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary party today. It was long, and very boring. So....yeah nothing exciting really happened. The highlight of my day was probably watching all of the seinfeld episodes on the way down there and back. Oh and I found a really good climbing tree, and got pretty high up in it. That's about it. Bye.

P.S. Congrats to clint and rachel!
